Phenomenal story

Cured is a beautifully-composed and captivating story about the capacity to love and to heal what's been broken. The storyline is character-focused, and Stacy Eaton has done a phenomenal job in their development. Ember and Colt, are utterly genuine, multi-faceted with emotional depth, and the capacity for growth. The secondary characters are a great addition, creating elements of drama, particularly within the family.

Moreover, the premise of how some deal with emotional pain and the all-powerful guild is brilliantly depicted. Ember's method is to shut the door to her heart and throw away the key. When Cold sees her bouncing from one random man to another, his natural inclination to fix and heal leads him to challenge Ember. The outcome is unexpected for both; forming a connection that is authentic, powerful, passionate, and sensual. Together they define the potential of real human connection through love, understanding, trust, and ultimately, healing.

Stellar performances by Jack Ares and Sophia Laroche. Both narrators honed in on the characters, channelling their personalities and emotions, bringing the entirety of the story to life for the listener.

Cured is wonderfully written with an incredible storyline and characters, one I strongly recommend. I received a complimentary copy of this audiobook, and my unbiased review is voluntarily given.

Love cures all

What a great romance read / listen. I really loved the characters - Ember (great name by the way) is so tragically broken and we see that from the very beginning. Colt (again a great name) is a Dr so I think it's in his nature to "fix" things. Both of these characters have issues to resolve but love will cure them both! Well written with great flawed characters that come together for a beautiful HEA. The twists and turmoil they go thru to get there comes across realistic, most people at some point in their lives have has to face at least one of the obstacles they face. The narration was good but not great for me. I did really like the dual narration. Good storyline and flow through out and I'm looking forward to listening to more from Eaton!

Wonderful Story & Listen🎧 Captivating & Heartfelt!

I throughly enjoyed this book, it is well written with interesting storylines that are captivating from start to end. The characters are realistic and easy to relate to. I adored both leads, my heart went out to Ember, you could tell she was hiding her inner demons and they were holding her back from enjoying life and moving forward. Colt Barnes was a true hero, he saw something in her the minute he laid eyes on her. They were two people from different worlds who clicked, Colt had his work cut out for him because Ember thought he was out of her league, she also had self worth issues. Sick of living a life of weekly one night stands she takes Colt up on the challenge he presented her with, a challenge that will change both of their lives. I loved his patience with her, how he was getting through to her. I also loved how everything played out in this book, the story is beautifully plotted and flows naturally. There is never a dull moment and there is plenty of drama, some angst, twists, heartfelt moments and some great romance. Stacy Eaton, thank you for the wonderful story and the emotional rollercoaster ride.

Jack Ares and Sophia Laroche are terrific narrators and voice artists. They did a great job portraying the characters and bringing them to life, giving each their own voice and personality. You could hear how much heart they put into their performance as they captured and projected the characters emotions it into their performance. They are entertaining storytellers and a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for the great listen🎧

Feel good romance!

I know when I begin a Stacy Eaton book, I am in for a treat. Each one of her stories includes a realistic couple that makes it so easy to understand and relate, it makes the book more enjoyable. This one features a broken woman, Ember. She uses sex as her escape from a painful past. When Colt, a plastic surgeon takes an interest in her for the woman she is, she is taken back. Colt is at a point in his life that he wants to find the one. He just wasn't aware it would be a glance in a bar that brought him Ember. Now these two have a lot to go over. Obstacles, hurts, and family all play a role in this event of healing. I found this story extremely refreshing. It's a pleasure to have a man see through the facade to the real woman. Eaton even adds some real life family drama with the addition of Colt's mother. It's a fun listen with a great message.

The narration by Jack Ares and Sophia Laroche brings this story to life. Both are new to me and I enjoyed their duet style, the pacing and their voices. It is a listen to enjoy.
